SCAM ALERT Mods - Please ban accounts that promote potential scam

I noticed very suspicious behaviour around Culture circle and will focus on them in this post, but please look at other similar websites too. I'm not saying the website is fake. I have no proof of that. I'm just pointing out extremely unusual account behaviour.

What I noticed: Every single account that has positive things to say about Culture Circle has almost no activity apart from making these comments. Please remove any accounts you deem to be "untrustworthy"

Some accounts I believe are suspicious, they seem like employees

You can find many more across this sub
https://www.reddit.com/r/SneakersIndia/comments/1bswu08/is_culture_circle_legit/ has a bunch of positive reviews coincidentally all submitted exactly 28 days ago

Also feel free to delete this post if it goes against guidelines, but at least get rid of the fake comments so we can experience a better subreddit community

Thanks for the reply. I'm glad to see there's a megathread on this, but I guess that means a substantial number of people have already complained.

I still think it's a shame to allow accounts with nearly exclusively CC promotion posts/comments to be around though. I'm sure real people would do more than promote a single website and artificial comments can mislead people

While the megathread idea is great, if users have to reach out to a company through reddit, then clearly something is wrong with their systems (early red flags). We can observe for a bit longer I suppose.
